Read news today about a woman who stuck tissue down her newborn baby's throat, before discarding the baby in plastic garbage bag. She didn't want to lose her boyfriend of 7 months; didn't tell him she was pregnant by another man, so lied about the pregnancy and he believed her. Sad. Men, like Joe Schnider decided women are not allowed to have abortions under anycircumstances. Too bad for the 3,000 plus women that get pregnant each year due to rape. He leads his hateful followers to shoot to kill doctors that perform abortions. The fetus' Right to Life, is more important than the Mother's right to make choices that affects only her life. They cite God, but the God they cite allows for Freedom of Choice, and admonishes to "judge not lest ye be judged". The 20 year old El Salvadorian immigrant probably didn't know abortion was still a legal option in most of the United States.

Did another of those 'net quizzes today. Results mirroring my mood. Can't blame it on the rain and lack of sunshine. 8 or 9 months ago, I was enthusiastic and mildly hopeful about the future. Not any more. Can not recall the last time I gave or received a hug. No verbal hugs either. No help from those who I've taken time to help. No phone calls. No nothings. No one's eyes lighting up with a smile to see you. No one glad to hear your voice on the other end of the line. No one concerned with your welfare. A total absence of love.

Postscript: Too bad I had a fit the other day and deleted all my copied and saved blog posts from my websites. This one probably belongs on All About Mary, and yet it has to do with laws and one of the reasons why I support Senator Obama for the Democrat bid in November.

VOTE SMART

Welcome

President Elect Barack Obama often said: "America, we can do better than that" on a variety of issues, including homelessness, specifically homeless veterans. Time will tell if he and our other elected officials will "do better than that."

Now that the election is over did not know what to do with this blog. I decided to leave the political stuff and rather than turning this into a general government blog, will stick to the subject of homelessness. With a bit of politics thrown as the mood strikes me.
